Joshua 24:9

24:9 Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab, launched an attack ¹  against Israel. He summoned ²  Balaam son of Beor to call down judgment ³  on you.

Joshua 22:23

22:23 If we have built ⁴  an altar for ourselves to turn back from following the Lord by making ⁵  burnt sacrifices and grain offerings on it, or by offering ⁶  tokens of peace ⁷  on it, the Lord himself will punish us. ⁸ 

[24:9]  ¹ tn Heb “arose and fought.”

[24:9]  ² tn Heb “sent and called.”

[24:9]  ³ tn Or “to curse.”

[22:23]  ⁴ tn Heb “by building.” The prepositional phrase may be subordinated to what precedes, “if in unfaithfulness…by building.”

[22:23]  ⁵ tn Heb “or if to offer up.”

[22:23]  ⁶ tn Heb “or if to make.”

[22:23]  ⁷ tn Or “peace offerings.”

[22:23]  ⁸ tn Heb “the Lord, he will seek.” Perhaps this is a self-imprecation in an oath, “may the Lord himself punish us.”
